The rain had all but destroyed the red and yellow tulips, but this dark, almost black variety held up to the recent downpours we had yesterday. I had been meaning to shoot the image for a few days and almost missed my chance, thank goodness I hadn't!
This shot is also for my pal +Don Noll who likes shots of dead flowers with his #deadflowersociety , this one is for you Don (honestly they are almost dead back there!).

Light shining through the trees in the woods surrounding Swettenham Arboretum today gave me an opportunity to make an image I have had in mind for a while.

This was my submission for Ants eye view for the latest round of +Chrysta Rae's Photography Scavenger Hunt. This is an epic and fun contest run by the one and only +Chrysta Rae where she gives 10 challenges to 500 G+ folks to come up with images representing a word or phrase. Why not pop on over to her stream and see the weird, wacky and brilliant ideas that folk come up with. You've just got to laugh!

Continuing my single bloom series. This bloom was covered in the first drops of a passing shower, I like showers when they add a little extra to an image! A great big #floralfriday to +Tamara Pruessner and of course no week would be complete without +steph wanamaker, thanks for another fun packed week!

They don't last long but Daffodils can even when dying provide opportunities for images especially if you want to submit to the unusual #deadflowersociety curated by +Don Noll +Katie Wright +Alex Ponce.
These three kings from ...... were parked up on the sea front at Rhos on Sea in Wales, and I've still no idea why or where the drivers had gone to. They parked there each day over the bank holiday weekend though and that gave me a chance to shoot them.
